1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine or DSPE or 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphatidylethanolamine

1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine or DSPE or 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphatidylethanolamine phosphorylethanolamine is a well-defined phospholipid acylated with C18:0 fatty acids at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions and is ideal for use as a PEGylated-DSPE complex for studies of lipisomes. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is frequently the main lipid component of microbial membranes and the second most abundant phospholipid in mammals, comprising as much as 45% of brain lipids.
